The Cost of Survival

Imagine a father who loathes his grown sons so much that he pits them against each other in a winner-take-all, fight-to-the-death for his estate. Add a little greed-and stir.Not everyone in the family wants the inheritance, but one person is willing to kill for it and go to prison for ten years-and already has once.Private investigator Jimmy Favreaux just wanted a peaceful fishing vacation in the lake country of northern Minnesota. But he barely unpacks before the past comes calling."Jimmy? I need your help. This is Marsha Little. I hear the sheriff's department is after me because they found Jacob's body in the lake.""I'm so sorry to hear-"She cuts him off, her voice tight, urgent."They found Jacob's body in the lake, but... that's not where I left him."Now wide awake and pulled back into the chaos, Jimmy enlists the help of his trusted partner, Wendi, and an old friend-retired attorney Porter "Vandy" Vandriesen. Together, they unravel a twisted legacy of resentment, betrayal, and cold-blooded ambition.Someone wants the inheritance badly enough to kill for it-and already has. Secrets rise. Family ties break. And in a place where everyone has something to hide, the price of survival might be death. When brother turns against brother, no one is safe."Blood isn't thicker than money" ~ Groucho Marx
